aeluropus lagopoides is a salt and drought tolerant grass from poaceae family, distributed widely in arid regions. there is almost no information about the genetics or genome of this close relative of wheat that stands harsh conditions of deserts. differential display amplified fragment length polymorphism (dd-aflp) led to the improvement of a non-radioactive method for which many parameters we...

Background: The stress is one of main factors effects on production system. Several factors (both genetic and environmental elements) regulate immune response to stress. Objectives: In order to determine the major immune system regulatory genes underlying stress responses, a learning Bayesian network approach for those regulatory genes was applied to RNA-...

salinization of crop lands is one of the most important reasons for reduction in productivity and threats food security. activation of signaling process in plants is the first step during sense environmental cues and stress signals. identification of the components of plant intracellular signaling mechanisms, pathways, and networks in response to salt stress in aegilops tauschii (the d genome d...

Scientists are interested in how gene expression levels may vary under different treatments. They want to know which genes are expressed differently under treatment conditions and control conditions. Gene expression microarray data are modeled to find significant changes in gene expression levels between a control and treatment tissue co-hybridized on one slide. The model used is the Bayesian h...

Differentially expressed genes are usually identified by comparing steady-state mRNA concentrations. Several methods have been used for this purpose, including differential hybridization, cDNA subtraction, differential display and, more recently, DNA chips. Subtractive hybridization has significantly improved after the polymerase chain reaction was incorporated into the original method and many...

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common endocrine and metabolic disorder in women. The abnormalities of endocrine and intra-ovarian paracrine interactions may change the microenvironment for oocyte development during the folliculogenesis process and reduce the developmental competence of oocytes in PCOS patients who are suffering from anovulatory infertility and pregnancy loss....
